3ds Max | Scripts

This is a script I use to calculate the key to fill ratio of a scene. Pretty simple script right now. I eventually want to be able to just select all the lights in a scene and run the script to get a ratio back, that is when I can find the time. For now you just have to manually pick each light individually. Any feedback would be great.

I renamed this script to TurboReduce, get it here http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/turboreduce

A script to recreate the subdivision levels of an object in case if you somehow lost them. Watch a demo here:

This tool is for converting from hexadeciaml strings to max color values and from max color values to hexadecimal stirngs

to install:
exxecute\run the script from maxscript menu
go to customize -> customize user interface and then go to the toolbar tab
find the mark tsang category and drag hexColor onto a toolbar of your choice

to use:
either use the color picker to pick a color to display the hexadecimal string

or:
use the editText box to enter a hexadecimal string e.g #5c9c00 to change the color swatch to the hexadecimal color

I have modified the amazing script HDR dome light from Chris Subagio and now it works in Max 2009;
also, I have added some new features, and now it works OK if you link it to a moving object.

It uses Spot lights with Shadow Map, so it´s very fast, about 7 seconds the renders I have attached
in a Quad Q6600 2´4Ghz.

But it has a little problem: if there are many dome lights in the same scene linked to many moving
objects, the global illumination has changes along the time, with brighter and darker frames.

This is not always, only sometimes.
